In this collection, black and white dominated, with punches of bright purples and cobalt blues punctuating every few looks. There was a lot of peekabo lace and some peplum, and of course, plenty of the intricately gathered, beautifully organic shapes for which Lacroix is famous. I love the exuberant use of color and texture; the opulence and the unexpected details, like a white tank bodice peeking out from beneath a black bouffant puff of a mini dress.

Chanel's Fall 2009 collection gets a shot of toughness from black winged eyeliner, lace tights, and fingerless gloves. I love the look of a prim boucle suit artfully tousled with a smattering of rock n' roll accessories. Like many collections this season, Chanel played with textures and volume, incorporating sheers, beading, feathers and ruffles into its signature layered, ladies-who-lunch look. I especially love the stark contrast of black and white and punches of glitter from embellished necklines and lapels.
